Career
[edit]Karting
[edit]Gładysz began karting on the European stage in 2018, where he recorded a best finish of 20th in the WSK Final Cup in the Mini category.[2] In 2019, Gładysz finished 6th in both the WSK Super Master Series and the ROK Cup Superfinal in the same category.[3][4] He had a strong year in 2020 in his final year of Mini karting, finishing third in three separate championships and ending the season with a first place in the WSK Open Cup.[5][6][7][8] Gładysz stepped up to OKJ the following season, and also contested the Karting Academy Trophy, finishing first.[9] He continued in OKJ for 2022, winning the Champions of the Future Winter Series and finishing second in the WSK Euro Series.[10][11] Gładysz competed in OK for his final year in karts.[12]
Formula 4

2024
[edit]In the 2024 pre-season, Gładysz joined the Formula Winter Series in preparation for his main campaign.[14] Gładysz impressed, finishing on the podium twice in the first round at Jerez.[15] He ended the season in third, scoring 92 points and finishing on the podium three times over the course of the season, and winning the rookie title.[16]
For his main campaign, it was announced that Gładysz would join MP Motorsport to race in the F4 Spanish Championship.[17] Gładysz had a slow start to the Spanish F4 season, but took his first single-seater win after taking a pole position and a subsequent victory at the Circuit Paul Ricard.[18][19] He would followed this with two successive victories in Aragón.[20][21] Gładysz would not win anymore after that, but did rack up three more podiums and eventually finished third in the standings with 187 points, having amassed three victories and eight podiums throughout the season.[22]
